Flora's Toys

Every so often they need a wash. This soft elephant was a Christmas present and it's lasted very well. It was becoming a bit niffy though. Here it is on the line. That this is the best photograph for blipping today tells you that I wasn't spoilt for choice.

Three bits of good news today. I've written before about trying to persuade the local authority to abandon plans to build an unwanted road in town. All the petitioning has been successful and the road has been, if not cancelled, 'paused'. Good news.

Secondly, in all the current interest in Scottish Government and its handling of harassment charges, a welcome announcement has possibly been overlooked. Everyone who has a learning disability, regardless of age, has been moved into the current group for covid vaccination. I am so grateful. My daughter got her first dose this afternoon. It is such a relief.

Lastly, our younger granddaughter has been here today for essential childminding. We haven't seen her since Christmas Day, except on Zoom, and it has been just so lovely to have her here. We are three weeks past our first vaccination and feel that we have reasonable protection. No-one is mixing in any other way.

Yoga for me tonight and I'll be hitting the hay in the hope of some sleep.
